Week 5 Power Rankings

Injuries rocked my power rankings this week. Carolina can't be taken seriously without a healthy Jake Delhomme, and Arizona demands to be taken seriously without Matt Leinart complaining to the press. I've been calling for the Cleo Lemon era to begin in Miami and it's finally upon us; I still dropped them behind an Atlanta team that has managed to hang around in games against better opponents.
